Some thoughts on Granblue Fantasy’s event, “Conquest of the Dark Singularity” fish event

It’s been a while since I’ve fully read an event, and for some reason when I read a summary of the mc getting mind-swapped with a fish? It got me kinda curious to actually read it, and turns out it was enjoyable as always ^w^

Neptune x Varuna?!?! Bro all this gay stuff is a big part of the reason why I’m still ‘playing’ this game omgggggggggg

I love the GL in this game <3

Lmao they got turned into a fish, funniest shit I’ve ever seen

Go Neruko!! Give ‘em sick burns!!

Seeing Hecate do things like this made me like her a lot more. I’m glad that the devs gave her more depth albeit a silly one but I like it a lot

Fish-realization

Captain (on the left) and Tunaro (on the right) :3

This did make me laugh not gonna lie lmao. Like you’re going to make the last coherent sentence this???? HAH!!

Fish riding!! ✨✨✨

Not-Bahamut who is named Seahamut turned tiny and cute

It’s cute that Ragazzo’s taking a book about skyfaring so seriously, gap moeeeee -w-

Yes please pet captain’s head uwu

This event was so fun to read and I loved it through the end! 🐟 🐠 🎣

(guy whos easy to please) i have forgiven cygames for everything

[goldenteaset]

I love how What Reeks and Burns’ tagline implied that we should root for Gallivan and then in the event proper there’s all these disconcerting little touches that make you wonder. Weird how nobody ever addresses his sister Bonnie directly! Weird how things keep coming up Gallivan whether he wants them to or not! I’m only on chapter 4 and I’m itching to find out what’s going on. :D

Hello my semi annual "wth is gbf" ask But in all seriousness y'all look you're having fun 😁

DFKJDFMLFD HEY!!! Tee hee!

we are having a tone of fun over here yeah!! this year is the 10th anniversary of the game with new Triple A game coming out, so it's going to be a busy year and we've all been buzzing quite a bit. Though the way i ended up attracting a hive of anons discussing gbf is a mystery -- in the end the main game itself remains pretty niche -- but we're having a lot of fun bouncing out of each others.

Though to answer "what is gbf".... *looks at my blog* you will have to be more specific about what you want to know, because we don't even talk about the main story on here all that much---

Ok so for the fast crash course:

Granblue Fantasy is a browser game which can be played on any Chromium based browser at http://game.granbluefantasy.jp/ . It has a Japanese and an English version, running at the same time (it's not different servers, we get content at the same time as the Japanese fandom does)

It also has a Fighting Game called Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising, and will soon have a Action RPG coming out in February called Granblue Fantasy Relink. Those games are set in the lore of Granblue, though gbvs is slightly in another timeline/universe -- still those stories are stand alones meant to be different steps on the characters journeys

The gameplay is mostly Turn-by-turn RPG for the gameplay, and Visual Novel for the story -- and gacha to get the characters you get to use and meet. (note that today we just got 200 free pulls, and the opportunity to use those pulls will disappear in less than 2 hours, so if you want to play the game today is a good day for that)

For a crashcourse on the basic lore to know about + some vague Main Story Characters and spoilers information, you can go there to learn more about it!

but the long story short is that the world of gbf is a world of floating islands and magic, ruled by the absent God of Rebirth and Destruction known as Bahamut. (all the homies hate Bahamut.) Once upon a time Bahamut split into two, splitting the world as we know, and overseeing two types of people: The People of the Skies (The Skydwellers) who are mortals, and the People of the Stars (the Astrals) who are immortal. The Astrals tried to invade the Skyrealms centuries ago, but where pushed back -- but behind them they left Primal Beasts, immortal creatures who works as semi gods, dedicated to a purpose programed inside of them.

Our Protagonist, Gran if you play as a guy, Djeeta as a girl (you can switch gender anytime tho), was abandonned by their father when they were young as he went on a quest to find Eustalucia, the island of the Astrals -- and after years of radio silence, MC finally gets a letter about their father's whereabouts, and decides to go on a journey to find back their fathers -- travelling the skies and all of its perils.

accompanying them are Vyrn, the red dragon who raised us, who's memories have mysteriously been locked away, and Lyria, the Girl in Blue (well, with blue hair, but shh), a young girl who was held prisoner by the local Empire for her power to be able to control the Primal Beasts. As she attempted to escape thanks to Katalina, an ex soldier of the Empire who was so saddened by Lyria's situation she freed her and swore loyalty to her instead, she met our MC... and near death circumstances brought Lyria to connect her life to our own, connecting us together.

Both Lyria and Vyrn end up accompanying MC out of devotion and love, but also out of seeking answers about their own existence as well.

And on their way to Eustalucia, our MC becomes the Captain of a Crew, going from island to island, adding more and more people to their crew as it goes.

The Main Story follows mainly their struggle to go to Eustalucia, facing the Empire at the time, Primal Beasts going Bersek, and much more others problems.

But every months the game unleash an event story, which will pretty much be "a story on another island that isn't related to the main plot". Those events then disappear for a time before being added to the side stories.

And those events have their own casts. The overall lore builds to the main lore, of course, but each event stories will follow their own themes for instance. Sometimes the casts of those events crossover and spend time together.

On here we talk a lot about What Makes The Sky Blue: A Three Parter story about the first primal beast of creations and their quests to reexamine their purpose, their free will, and their connection with Bahamut as their creators turns out to be heavily linked to him.

wmtsb is also the doomed love story of Sandalphon and Lucifer, as Sandalphon was driven to madness and unleashed his anger on Lucifer, leading to strife when Lucifer tried to make things right no matter what. They're. so much.

(longer version with translation)

it's also the story that has Belial as a secondary antagonist, and it's the guy we talk about soooo fucking much on here because we're so unwise about him. the polar opposite of Lucifer, who yet was so dedicated to his creator he triggered various apocalypses and brought various issues to our protagonists to selfishly reunite with the man he loved.

Oh and, like, i'm not actually like, any type of hyperbolism about the LGBT+ stuff btw. Belial's feelings are explicitly romantic, and later Lucifer mirrors Belial's explicit words to address his feelings for Sandalphon for instance.

We also have various Trans rep (Ladiva and Cagliostro are openly trans women, Balurga is a trans man, Orologia is a genderfluid dragon who literally shift gender from one screen to the next and who use they/them, and the characters who, as a group, are named the 6 dragons, are openly nonbinary. There's also two others characters (Morilynn and Morgan) who use they/them pronouns. And also i'll include him but Lamorak who said he refused to be limitated to gender.)

We also have a lot of wlw and mlm, including a canon wlw kiss (but for that i direct you to my current pinned post, i love them so much they're so unwell) and a wlw engagement party. We're doing fine here.

Another story i'm particuliarly found of personally is the Dragon Knights saga, but it's a 10 parters so it's like. A Lot. But it's basically about four knights who once served the country of Feendrache together, working together to uncover the sins of Feendrache's past and make sure the current country is willing to atone for their crimes, as they're trying to rebuild a proper future, while avoiding the threat of Merlin, a victim of one of said crimes who have been planning Feendrache's destruction ever since.

Or the story Marionette Stars, about people suddenly getting wrapped into a conspiracy as they are being led to connect with powerful weapons connected to the Horoscope, leading them in the web of an organization who is making sure conditions are met for them to awaken their weapons to lead to nefarious intentions.... it's where the kissing lesbians are from for instance, but also fair warning this is the gorest of the saga so far and it has a lot of unsettling stuff going on in it.

And there's so much more characters and stories and anything for the eyes to see. All with gorgeous arts, and a lot of recent stories have very deep themes which really are interesting to sit through, though keeping in mind that the game has a lot of disturbing content and doesn't hesitate to have you sit through extremely disturbing and gore scenes. #SurvivorOfTikohFE

here's some arts samples of various saga to give you an overview of some goodies here and there

and if you want to get into it because of Seiyuu? you're in luck! there's so many characters in granblue that your favorite seiyuu can POSSIBLY be in it!

like i did a list of a3 seiyuus in it for example:

and some of them have songs! as pictured above with Sandalphon's (Suzumura Ken'ichi) song, but also like, the Dragon Knights (Seiyuu: Eguchi Takuya, Ono Yuuki, Ryota Osaka, Kazuhiko Inoue) or Grimnir's song (by legendary seiyuu Megumi Ogata)

or also absolutely bonkers songs as OST, like the infamous Parade's Lust, Paradise Lost, Zero, Existence, Peace and Quiet, The Watershed Moment, or a personal fav with For You.

So strap in, give it a shot, and if you want clarification on literally anything, don't hesitate ;D

hii! regarding your tags on the bnha x gbf post! Granblue events unlock after you read, i think, Chapter 6 of the Main Story or something? so just the begining -- once it's done, you can read any events that are live at the time. Sometimes some events, even collabs, end up spoiling some Main Story Point, but there's no way to know in advance if it's going to be the case. Still hope it works out for you :3c It should be pretty accessible still. Hope the event treats you well!

omg hii Icha!! Thanks for reaching out ahdjfjgh

Chapter 6! That sounds nice! That doesn't sound very overwhelming! And I don't really mind possible spoilers either! I can do it! 💪💪

I hope the event battles won't become too hard, though. I may not be able to build up a lot of levels/characters in a short time hhhh I'll do my best!!

lone wolf's passing event spoilers

i regret looking the crew server im in while i was reading event bc i didnt realize how apparently its such a big deal with the general playerbase that (skydweller) types cant reproduce together like ... that established fact in gbf is just "whatever idrc" but huh some people's enjoyment of the game really depends on if their (human) danchou can "breed" with their waifu and equating that as an ultimate statement of love/waifuism ...... like okay ..... (peepoleave) ...

the event altogether was a mediocre one imo so i understand if that's the only remarkable note to pull from it (in regards to general gbf worldbuilding lore). the "dead gf/fiancee pushing a man's motivation" trope closed the door on the event for me. and as much i found balor (unintentionally) funny, the "probably gay man obsessed with probably straight man uses his obsessions to fuel his antagonism" trope is pretty tired too with no intriguing writing to help it out.

i did like the final fight with balor; i always find storytelling with battle mechanics interesting, so i liked the flashback transition and the tunnel vision on past + current balor v sevastion.

this was my first exposure to a lumiel event/story so errrr ill just chalk this event up to a mediocre first impression [disclaimer i am a lvl176 noob]. good job to sevastian on not being a misogynist anymore lol

[dawningsky]

hello dont be excited its just me have u looked at her today

'theres so many where do i start' u request fenrir or phoebe ! theyre always the most safe bets, and i adore both of them:]

if u're not caught up with main story or don't wanna be spoiled of the current event u should blacklist "#gbf spoilers", if u don't wanna be spoiled on rising u should blacklist "#gbvsr spoilers", if u dont wanna be spoiled on relink you should blacklist "gbf relink spoilers". i note in the muse list who has spoilers & for what. sorry for the fenrir spoiler

regarding memes & various calls, u can & should request my muses from other blogs too, cuz the likeliness of me rbing stuff on my solo blog is uh. nonexistent. i'll post them at the right blog! in the same vein, if u dont specify a muse ill go free real estate (but only for the blogs u follow)

spoiler for the current gbf event but out of context

[kindauglypikachuicon]

Omg Eustace put on doggy ears!!! So adorable!!

And then somehow Eustace gave a costume to Purin from outta nowhere

Part 2

[toestalucia]

this is the greatest event theyve ever written

[goldenteaset]

At this point I can only assume Sho's gang sticks with him for two reasons: 1) he's a genuinely good guy at heart, and 2) he keeps giving ASMR sessions free of charge (or just Cool English That Sounds Like A Motor Revving).

"JUUUST A MOMENT!", "Who are you~?" etc. etc. :D

[noctswife]

Even though he was so nervous about it, he’s still having a bit oof fun with this, isn’t he

[flovverworks]

returning to ydays post so gbf spoilers for the event for sure, probably mhyk spoilers too

Morimori: But what's so wrong about forgetting? It's not his fault. And it's not Erbsu's or Nerine's either. Even the past town elders were forced to make tough decisions. Running from reality and forgetting the bad things is how we as people can live happy, treeful lives. Drusilla: Are you perhaps encouraging me? Morimori: I thought that was obvious. Even if you end up forgetting Nerine, you're not to blame.

this EXCHANGE........1) nerine's entire thing alrdy had me bawling but. i was alrdy thinking about these topics since ive been thinking about type0 again...@_@ i DO run off akira rmbring the wizards & everything, i talked about this a while back, but it IS true that arthur&co forgot the old sage's face & name almost immediately. theres a lot of fanwork too revolving around akira being forgotten/forgetting too (more strongly in the forgetting side, while forgotten rly is mostly.....name&face. points to yorushika's usotsuki for the billionth time). riquet's anni card about riquet's book.....there is sage's book, so why not make akira's book too? 1.5 with them not telling anyone what actually happened that night, and akira silently wishing that someone will one day ask them about their story. ive had this thought for soooo long too about akira writing down everything they rmbr of the wizards&their world when they return to their world, in order to not forget, in order to not lose it. 'you're not to blame' did a number on me big time

Nerine: I'm not sure why, but it feels like this sort of thing calls for more than a… thing. Drusilla: You mean a story would be better? Nerine: Whoa, how'd you know? I was going to write one as soon as I got back to the forest! Drusilla: I thought it might be worth learning from your example as well. Nerine: My example? Are you going to write a story too? Then this trip'll be great inspiration! Let's have lots of fun until the very last minute!

which essentially goes into this exchange too,,,,,T_T rather than an item, writing a story......telling a story......even if its not read by anyone, something that you can read and remember.......memories fade, stories remain, all that....

Drusilla: Sigh… All I wanted was for you to experience normal town life. Nerine: Huh? But that's impossible. I'm with you, aren't I? That makes it too special to be normal. Drusilla: …! I-I'm impressed you can say such things without even a hint of embarrassment.

akira before vs after meeting the wizards (but rly.....voicing ur feelings rather than keeping them inside....T_T

Nerine: How am I supposed to smile! I don't want to say goodbye! We haven't even eaten cake together yet! I can't believe this is the end! That I'll never see you again! Drusilla: This is the worst! I want to spend more time with you! Forget being special! Why couldn't we have met under normal circumstances!

figaros fkng mahopa. school april fools. that one chocolate meeting place vday event. theres another time where akiras like 'will i too be able to wave goodbye while smiling?' or whatever but i cant rmbr which event it is. anyway i was BAWLING

Drusilla: Thanks to Nerine, I realized something. I'm special to Nerine, and she's just as special to me. But it's not just her—the crew, my friends, and my family are all incredibly important to me. And they all have people who are important to them. Everyone is special to someone.

;_; 2nd anni............................1.5.......................pt2.............................. everyone is special to someone.......

theres admittedly also the mhyk 3rd anni website txt,,,

Even fairy tales without happy endings can one day be cherished all the same.

gggggg i wANT THE HAPPY ENDINGS THOOOOO korwa is so right for always talking about that. either way the full text talking about weaving a tale and similar,,,,i havent read that anni story still but the cards with 'capturing a moment'...T_T anyway i have an entire side thought on "happy", especially in regards to pt2 focus charas but ill get into that when pt2 is finished im so emotionally drained after this event + today.

there IS also an entire subject on the forgetting in the event in regards to gran's feelings in current msq but ill take that on gran someday. also especially the first part.....in regards to the part in 1.5 that makes it iffy whether akiras alive or not (especially considering what the Common isekai plot is)........i have thoughts regarding all that & how brad looked at akira when speaking about nova + how faust thought nova reminded them of akira in that 'u r not from here' way, but i still havent read ch17 and overall i assume theyre gonna drop the entire thing on us during pt2? so ill come back to that l8r but in general. man. this event story........im not used to being the target audience this often, last time was sui?? and before that sincerely???? 3 events within one year....waow.....

anyway im drained

[captainmullin]

Speak to me that good

Lore

HI ANON you dont understand I was awake at like 1 am thinking about the main story [insert the 'wants to infodump so bad' image]

spoilers for the newest msq chapters (165-172) and cw for blood/body horror (msq screenshots)

does anyone understand how insane i feel. there's SO much buildup for the main story, even way back in the nalhegrande arc - the Great Wall comes back and its revealed that it was supposed to stop the Otherworld invasion??? Tau'luk sacrifices himself and EVERYONE FORGETS HIM IMMEDIATELY AFTER. That's CRAZY to me (then of course the Mikaboshi and Tau'luk parallels)

The entire purpose of the Otherworlders is to rewrite reality to maintain their presence - they want to be freed from their curse (remember, they're Old As Balls /ref) and SOMEHOW THE CAPTAIN HAS THE SOUL? CORE? OF THE FIRST GOD IN THEM???

my guess is that all the Otherworlders want is to be returned back to their normal state as villagers - but how many years has it been? Can they even go back? Or do they just want revenge on the god that cursed them? ALSO HOW DID THE CAPTAIN GET THIS IN THEM.

Maxwell mentions that Lyria and Vyrn are the ones letting the Captain have the ability to be the Singularity, but if the soul of the 'first god' is within them, then wouldn't that render Lyria and Vyrn useless - granted, Lyria is literally keeping the Captain alive via their soul bond, but what if that never happened? - and Vyrn is just a tiny dragon atm

(I've forgotten what the specifics of the girl in blue/red dragon prophecy thing mentions, but there's SO MANY QUESTIONS I HAVE)

I REALLY want to make a gbf timeline, including the events because ARGHFRGGHFGF WHAT DOES IT MEAN CYGAMES

also i absolutely feel like more people need to read the main story. it makes me lose my mind and gives us so much more context as to why this is happening to us (if you're coming from reading the events, specifically like. the anniversary events) [dadmom i miss you]

anyway i had more thoughts but rn all i can think of is WHERE HELMSMAN. WHERE DID YOU HIDE HIM
